Race day notes
- ·The Italian Grand Prix at Monza is the fastest race on the calendar — average lap speeds exceed 260 km/h. The noise is extraordinary, especially at the first chicane.
- ·September in Monza: warm (22–28°C), low humidity. Sunscreen and a water bottle are sufficient — September is Monza's finest weather.
- ·Tifosi (Italian fans, especially Ferrari supporters) create the most passionate atmosphere in Formula 1. Wear neutral or Ferrari colours — other team kit is generally fine but expect passionate banter.
- ·Post-race trains from Monza back to Milan fill instantly — expect standing-room only for the 12-minute journey.
